Blue Monday - Apothecary Jar


I love apothecary jars. There just seems to be something feminine about the shape. I also have a green one and a clear one, but this one is by far my favorite. I bought it during a trip to Florida. Despite it being an apothecary jar the shade of blue drew me in. I drew a quick watercolor sketch of it this morning to keep things connected to my desire to create some art everyday.

Have a great Blue Monday everyone.

Best Wishes,
A.Marie
